– Street Portrait (for and of Francesca), 2014 –
It seemed like the first mild, sunny Spring day of the year. I’d just set foot on Great Queen Street, when I spotted Francesca walking towards me. She was great about agreeing to a few shots. I loved her look, and didn’t want to lose the textures in the background – it’s a visually busy street, so we used the side of a van as a neutral backdrop. This was the fourth shot and is my favourite. Thanks very much for stopping, Francesca! Hope you like your picture.
